Youth Team to Face Notts County in FA Youth Cup 1st Round

The youth team will face Notts County at home in the first round of this season's FA Youth Cup.

Academy manager Mark Smith said of the draw: "It's good to have a home tie and we'll be trying to make the most of that.

"I've been involved in the FA Youth Cup for a few years now and it's something that the players look forward too, but it's one of these games where if you aren't mentally prepared for it you can come unstuck.

"But I'm quietly confident that if we can get our players in the right frame of mind we'll do well in the game."

The date and venue of the match is yet to be confirmed, details will be communicated out as and when they are available.
